How much does the government spend on pensions?
In 2022, the payment to pensions was 1.4 billion pesos.
The Secretary of the Treasury, Rogelio Ramírez de la O, said during the delivery of the budget that the allocation of resources for the following year was made so that in 2024 the welfare pensions reach 6,000 pesos bimonthly.
The amount that will be allocated to pensions is the highest on record and it is estimated that it will increase in the following years.
To help workers have a better pension, the government will work hand in hand with the National Retirement Savings System Commission (Consar) to promote voluntary savings for workers who have an Afore account.
“The strategy of the Government of Mexico is aimed at achieving social justice and the comprehensive well-being of older adults at retirement age. During 2023, actions will be carried out that will affect a better integration of the three central components of the pension system : the pension for the well-being of older adults, the pension linked to employment and voluntary savings”, highlighted the Ministry of Finance.
